Running VLC using root account will give you some risk, so be carefull :)
Here is the problem
"VLC is not supposed to be run as root. Sorry. If you need to use real-time priorities and/or privileged TCP ports you can use vlc-wrapper (make sure it is Set-UID root and cannot be run by non-trusted users first)."
First solution
Copy this syntax (CTRL+C) and then paste to your terminal (CTRL+SHIFT+V)
sed -i 's/geteuid/getppid/' /usr/bin/vlc
Then enter
You dont need sudo if you run your computer as root
or the second solution
gedit /usr/bin/vlc
search for geteuid and replace it with getppid
Save file & Exit.
Then VLC can run as root
